Welcome and congrats!
This timeframe is amazing. Did you pick up an existing order that had already been accepted, or what that literally how quickly your exact order got allocated and built?
There are a bunch of former STI and Evo guys here! I'm in both camps: two Evos, a WRX, and an...
If it had to be spent on vehicles::
sports car: Porsche Cayman GTS 4.0 ($99k)
truck: Ford F150 Tremor w/ AWD t-case ($72)
electric: Hyundai Ionic 5 AWD ($57k)
Total: $228k
The list above assumes I could keep my 4BW.
If I could spend it on anything, I would make a downpayment on a...
No argument from me that 2nd gear is funky. And no argument that cold makes it worse.
I was simply commenting on the idea that there is some big variation in the quality of the gearboxes. It seems more likely to me that there is a big variation in driving styles between the various members...
I got rear-ended while sitting at a light in my Frontier a couple of months ago. They center-punched the receiver shackle mount that sticks out a few inches. No apparent damage to my truck. The other vehicle had obvious bodywork damage and a bunch of codes showing on their dash.
The experience really made me wonder about you guys, LOL.
I listen to music on USB and also found the navigation to be shockingly limited while moving.
Then one time I accidentally grabbed the tuning knob next to the volume knob, and found that it allowed me to do navigation that was greyed...
I'm also coming from an STI.
The 4BWs are putting down just over three times as much torque per wheel as the STI. Or "trying" to put it down, LOL.
The other day in the rain I granny shifted into 2nd and then squeezed the throttle and the rears broke loose at like 45 mph. These are just...
Thanks for doing this!
I think it would be extremely useful to include the most excellent reference information about drive modes that you posted here.
That post cleared up a lot of mystery for me.
I've learned - mostly from the folks here - that very small differences in technique make a huge difference.
I was having a lot of trouble with the 2nd gear shift in mine when I first got it. Three changes made a huge difference for me. Presented in descending order of importance:

I think The Blackwing King himself said he didn't understand why the color wasn't more popular. I know why: Shadow was done dirty by Cadillac's horrible computer-generated images in their online build tools.
Once guys here started posting actual pics, M2Cto4BW in particular, I was blown...

Not Blackwing-specific news. But probably of interest to some folks ... and I don't have privileges in the Cadillac News forum.
MatthewAMEL put up some excellent charts about how Drive Modes, PTM, traction control, stability control, and other stuff all interact in this post.
Doesn't answer your question, but I thought it would be good reference info for the discussion.
